Chapter 469: Chapter 468: Those Nightmares Have Been Diminished

After the driver delivered her clothes, she went to the restroom to change into clean clothing.

Sitting down on the sofa next to her, it was already past three in the morning, and she was exhausted both physically and mentally.

So, she leaned on the sofa to sleep.

Not knowing how long she had slept, she gained some consciousness, her eyes slightly opened, and she realized she was leaning against someone’s chest, which startled her into full alertness. Sitting up, she stared blankly at Ye Sihan, "You... you’re awake?"

"It’s uncomfortable to sleep here, isn’t it?"

Xing Ling immediately stood up, "Can you get out of bed now? Also, why am I in your arms? What are you trying to do?"

"Ayu, don’t get excited. I was sitting here, and you were the one who fell into my arms," said Ye Sihan with a knowing look in his eyes.

Xing Ling remembered that she was indeed sitting when she fell asleep, so it was possible she had slumped down while asleep.

"You should go lie down on the bed!" Xing Ling had never seen someone get out of bed after surgery so soon.

"Ayu, are you concerned about me? I’m so glad," Ye Sihan’s dark pupils rippled.

"Now that you’re awake and it seems you’re fine, I’m going back. And please, don’t ever appear in front of me again," Xing Ling said, and then she turned to leave.

"Hmm," Ye Sihan was just about to stand up when a sudden pain in his chest turned his face pale.

Xing Ling saw his condition and became nervous, but she held back from approaching him.

More than that, she didn’t dare to.

She was afraid of getting too close to Ye Sihan.

Ye Sihan took a couple of deep breaths and, fixing his gaze on her as he stood up, he suddenly embraced Xing Ling.

"Ye Sihan, let go of me!" Xing Ling’s eyes brimmed with tears.

"Ayu, I’ve missed you so much, I can barely hold on," said Ye Sihan in a hoarse voice, like an animal in pain.

"You promised to let me go, you said you would..." Xing Ling couldn’t hold back her tears, which began to fall.

Ye Sihan tightened his grip, as if trying to embed her into his body so that she would never leave.

He couldn’t resist, cupping the back of her head and kissing her greedily, sucking thirstily at her lips.

For three years, he had been longing for her, for everything about her.

Now, finally tasting her, his lips were like suction pads, firmly clinging to the tender ones, his assertive tongue entangling tightly.

You could see the sexy Adam’s apple moving with his swallowing.

"Mmm! You... let go mmm!" Xing Ling’s body was trembling, her emotions agitated, and she pushed against Ye Sihan’s chest with her hand.

Ye Sihan winced in pain, loosening his grip.

Xing Ling broke free, gasping for air, then she saw the moisture on Ye Sihan’s lips, not knowing whose saliva it was, and noticed the red mark on his chest, "You... lunatic!"

After saying that, she ran away in a fury.

Running out of the ward, she grabbed a nurse, "The patient’s wound has reopened, go check on him," before leaving the hospital.

She couldn’t wait to get as far away as possible from Ye Sihan’s territory.

When she arrived home, at this hour, the quadruplets had already left for school.

However, she did see Xing Tian, Xing Yanjie at home.

Sitting on the couch in the living room, it seemed they were waiting for her.

"How is Ye Sihan doing?" asked Xing Yanjie.

"He’s fine," Xing Ling said. If he really had been in bad shape, would he have been able to take liberties with her? To think after three years, he still had the urge to do such things to her? "The quadruplets don’t know, do they?"

"We didn’t tell them," replied Xing Tian.

"Lucky Ye Sihan showed up at the bar, otherwise wouldn’t you have been in trouble? Going out without even a bodyguard, do you think this is Kyoto?" Xing Yanjie frowned.

"I’ll remember next time," said Xing Ling.

"What did Ye Sihan say to you after he woke up?" Xing Yanjie inquired. "Is it possible he wants you to have a change of heart?"

"No matter what he said, it has nothing to do with me," Xing Ling brushed off the topic, "I’m going to my room to rest."

With that, she went upstairs.

Xing Yanjie remarked, "Seems like Ye Sihan lost his cool and scared her back here."

"Didn’t expect him to be so impulsive," said Xing Tian.

"On the matter of Xing Ling, he loses all sense of reason. Think about Tang Yu’s past experiences, even if I don’t know the details, my guess is probably not far off," Xing Yanjie said.

The brothers spoke thus, indicating they had known about Ye Sihan’s arrival here all along.

Still, his endurance for three years was somewhat unexpected to them.

Xing Ling lay in bed, yet sleep eluded her.

The reappearance of Ye Sihan had unsettled her.

Would Ye Sihan leave M country after recovering?

What if he doesn’t leave, what then?

Would he still think of coming to the Xing Family?

Frightened, Xing Ling tossed and turned in bed.

There was a knock on the door, and Xing Ling sat up, "Come in."

The person who entered was Xing Yanjie, "Can’t sleep?"

"What are you talking about, you woke me up," Xing Ling denied.

Xing Yanjie didn’t expose her, "I thought Ye Sihan could keep enduring! I didn’t expect he would last only three years."

"What do you mean?"

"For these three years, he hasn’t had even a hint of a woman by his side, seems like he is still thinking about you."

"How do you know he hasn’t had a woman?"

"Wouldn’t I have checked?" Xing Yanjie said. "Besides, just sleep with him, and you’ll know if this man has been with women or not!"

"Second brother!" Xing Ling’s face turned red.

"My bad, my bad! What I meant to say was, after you left three years ago, Ye Sihan has been unwell, either suffering from gastric bleeding or insomnia. Didn’t you notice a faint scent of Chinese medicine on him?"

"I didn’t," recalled Xing Ling, shaking her head.

"That means he’s hidden it well, not letting you find out. So, with his body in that condition, how could he find a woman?"

Listening to her second brother, Xing Ling realized that the past three years she had imagined Ye Sihan living lavishly were different.

At least, she had never considered that Ye Sihan’s health would be compromised.

"Others might deceive you, but your oldest and second brothers would never lie to you. I’m going to the company now, you rest well," Xing Yanjie got up. Remembering something, he paused, "Oh, right, I’m sending you a short video to watch."

After Xing Yanjie left, Xing Ling received a text message from him on her phone.

Upon opening it, she saw a video clip from surveillance footage.

It was from three years ago, the moment Ye Sihan and she parted at the airport.

It was from Ye Sihan’s perspective.

He passed through the departure hall, exited through another door, then his body stiffened and, as he bent over, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.

Xing Ling shuddered, this was...

Ye Sihan was helped by bodyguards into the car in the video.

He must have gone to the hospital then.

Was it gastric bleeding? Or something else...

Xing Ling tossed her phone aside, as if to discard the disturbing thing it contained.

But that was not enough, so she covered her ears tightly with her hands.

Yet, it still wasn’t enough, for the memories of her time with Ye Sihan emerged, mostly of his affections for her, or of her feelings for him.

Those nightmares had been mitigated.

Tang Yu, you’ve died once already, do you really want to die a second time?

All of this can’t be real, how could Ye Sihan’s health possibly be bad?

It’s like her second brother was implying Ye Sihan turned out this way because of her.

She didn’t believe it...

Clearly, it was his own issue...
